September 2012
Contest: Crossover Couples
Deadline: September 30

This month, it’s all about the crossover couples! Now is your chance to vid your favorite crossover couple, whether they're a crossover between a movie and a television show, a male/female couple, a female/female couple, or a male/male couple. Show us a vid of Peter from Fringe falling in love with Emma from Once Upon A Time, or a hot vampire hookup of Edward Cullen & Sookie Stackhouse!

You may only vid one couple. A triangle may be used only if the third person is someone who just triggers some actions and emotions (jealousy etc.), but the main focus must definitely be on the main crossover couple

You may use any song you like, and any footage you like. Outside footage is allowed. So, for example, if you are vidding Damon/Claire (The Vampire Diaries/Lost), you may use footage of Ian Somerhalder from his days as Boone on Lost to tell your story.

Angsty, happy, a little bit of both, tell us the story of an amazing crossover couple!

The Rules

Specific Contest Rules:
• Make a video about your favourite crossover couple.
• Crossover couples only. No canon, or OCs.
• Running time should be under five minutes. We suggest the 3 - 5 minute range.
• The more creative, the better. Don't be afraid to take risks.
• When entering your video on the Submit page, you MUST enter "September 2012 contest submission" exactly in your vid's description.

General Contest Rules:

• Contest submissions should be entered through the Submit page.
• All regular submissions Rules apply.
• Only one entry per vidder.
• Videos already submitted and RELEVANT can be submitted again, but we would rather see something fresh. (Please contact a CM if you wish to enter a previously-submitted video)
• Please do not use Rapidshare or Yousendit as your only hosting place.
• If you're using Youtube as your primary link, please also provide us with an alternative link. Far too often, YT is either disabled or muted by the time the contest is ready to be judged. Mediafire and zshare are just a couple of the sites out there that can be used as reliable backup links. We do realise that there have been a lot of issues with file-sharing websites recently but if you can find anywhere that you're comfortable uploading to and that is easily accessible, that would be great!
• Keep in mind that however you choose to host your video, it must be available to be watched at least until after the deadline has passed. If we can not access your video at the time of judgment it will not be considered.
Have fun!

Is it too late to enter my Bad Romance vid into the contest?

I wasn't going to use it; I was going to do another vid but the clips I ripped didn't come out right.

Thanks.

ok...i don't know if this is allowed - because it way older...but can i submit the Dean/Kate one? I don't know if it's actually within the rules or not...derp (b/c i did use other characters that overlap and or tell the story. The focus is Dean/Kate though..
